Something else?  And cast it wisely, you didn't get another for the day.  And there wasn't that encounter, rest, encounter, rest stuff like so many folks do today.  It did get a bit boring.  Plus I guess computer games have influenced things.  After all, magic in a lot of computer games was plentiful.  And players wanted that in their table top game.  And a smart company gives its customers what they want.And now, magic is the Fantasy Game equivalent of technology.   Magic Items used to be rare and cherished.  Now if you don't have several, you are under equipped.</blockquote>
